Maybe you could take Trask and maybe Aaron, Hannah? Would that be good, Merenwen?

[H.M.R.]

(Restrerwen has Trask already) oh awesomeness! Now to go plot in the corner and...........

[Kendra]

(Yes, but Resterwen is trying to pawn Trask off, as she doesn't feel she can handle three characters.) Wait for Merenwen to confirm it, as she seems to be the one running operations.

[H.M.R.]

Oh, okay :)

[Erika]

Yeah. I'm getting married this weekend, people. I'm crazy to be in this story at all... :)

But I'm a goodreads girl for the Resistance. :)

[Amanda]

Oh my word! Congratulations! That is so amazing. How old are you, if I may ask?

[H.M.R.]

Oh my word! Congratulations Resterwen!:)

[gabi]

Congrats! :-O Oh my goodness!!! *accompanied by squeals* That is so wonderful!

[Merenwen]

@Resterwen: Congratulations!! :D *goes to throw glitter* *remembers you don't like glitter in RL* *opts for flowers instead*

@Hannah: Sounds good. :) So, you have Trask and Aaron...adding to list. :)

Also, I'm going to up the maximum paragraph to six. Because I tried writing mine, I cut it in many different ways...and it refused to go to four... :P

[Alyssa]

Congrats Resterwen! That's so exciting!! *hugs*

[C.B.]

RESTERWEN THAT'S AWESOME!!! What if the characters popped up at your wedding... O.O

@Merenwen: On the government, I wasn't thinking they'd get captured or anything. No way can the army stand up to a dragon...

Alrighty:) I'm super excited about doing this!

[Alyssa]

Dragons definitely beat the military!! :D

[Amanda]

OOOOOH A WEDDING?! Congratulations!!! *showers flowers with Merenwen*

[Sierra]

Congratulations Resterwen!!! :D That's awesome!!

[Sierra]

Oh, and if it isn't too late, is there any chance that I might join the fanfiction as well?

[Brie]

I have a spare dragon, Sierra. You could have Exsis and Tane. Not sure that you'd want him but no one has Holden either. He knows what to do with a dragon.

[H.M.R.]

Hey I was wondering if quatations had to be a paragraph? For example.....

I turned and asked,
"Do you do it often?"
"No." He replied quickly.

Would that be three paragraphs?

[Amanda]

No, it would only be one. :) When there's a space between lines, like you hit the return/enter twice, then you can count it as a new paragraph. If the dialogue is spread out, and the paragraphs are shorter, you can make it a few more paragraphs. 5-10 sentences is usually a good length for a paragraph, so if you make them shorter than that, you can have more. Writing is flexible and fun.

[Kendra]

She states that if you have paragraphs shorter than four sentences, you can count them together. Or something like that.

[Amanda]

...yep. I made that way harder than it should've been.

[Stargazer]

Yikes you all are doing stuff without me! And now I can't join. Oh well. I wouldn't have time anyway. :P Have fun guys! :D

Also, SARAH HOLMAN GAVE ME ILYON BOOKMARKS!!! :D I have some little tiny cute ones with Resistance's cover, and two really cool tall ones with Jaye's old logo on it. So I got to trade the bookmark I had in Half Blood out for a Ilyon one. ^_^ (For the record, the bookmark I was using before said: "There is truth and simplicity in genuine friendship". ... Yeah. So not appropriate for Half Blood. Not. At. All. XD)

And while I was looking at one of the bookmarks I saw something.

Stare at this a moment:

Do you see it?

Jay Elk Night

JAY ELK NIGHT. ISN'T THAT AWESOME?

[Stargazer]

Resterwen's getting married? Congratulations!!!!

[Merenwen]

I made a new thread to discuss the fan fic. :)

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

@Sierra: There are some side characters left, if you want. I'll list them for you on the discussion thread. :)

[Merenwen]

Uhh…on Amazon, someone’s selling a paperback copy of TKS for 90 smackers, plus shipping… o_o
*looks at page again*
Holy mackerel, 4thousandbucks?!?!?! *makes strangled noise of dumbfound-ment*

http://www.amazon.com/Kings-Scrolls-I...

[Alyssa]

What?!?! *joins Merenwen in making strangled noises*

[Erika]

That's different. Under publisher, it has Loving Sword Publishing and the right date, but under published date, it says January 1, 1605. Don't pass this off as an ancient book. :)

[Erika]

*living sword publishing

[Sierra]

WHOA. That is INSANE! (I love how it says 3.99 for shipping after the 4700 dollars)

[Amanda]

That is ridiculous. Well, I mean, TKS is definitely valuable. However, I think that's a bit much.

[Stargazer]

WHAT? That's crazy. I'm laughing so hard. What even?

[Amanda]

And it's really too bad, 'cause if anyone were to fall for the four thousand dollar scam, Jaye wouldn't get any of it. I mean, if you're going to sign people up for a hoax, at least be nice and donate to the author.

[Amanda]

Oh my gracious, I'm dying. 1605?! WHO DID THAT? XD

[Alyssa]

*laughs even harder* This person is OBVIOUSLY NOT an Ilyon fangirl. :D

[Stargazer]

I FINISHED HALF BLOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND IT WAS AWESOME AND I LOVED IT.

JAAAAACE!!!!!!!!!!!!! RAYAAAD!!!!

The climbing staircase of Ilyon books continues! Best Ilyon book so far! :D Thanks for writing it Jaye! ^_^

[Alyssa]

Half-Blood is awesome!! I love it! Now, I need to get a paperback...

[Amanda]

I don't have any of the books in paperback. *sobs* I NEED them all.

[Alyssa]

It's definitely a need not a want! :)

[Sierra]

Yessss! I currently have them all on kindle, and I'm going to ask for the paperback copies for Christmas so I can loan it to people and say you must read this book

[C.B.]

IKR? I only have them on Kindle, too...

[Alyssa]

I let my friend borrow my books and right now she's on book 3/12 in a series and I tell her that as soon as she's done she needs to borrow the Ilyon bolks. Same for my sister. :)

[Jaye]

So I just found this on eBay and had to have it . . .

[Amanda]

OH MY WORD! That is so adorable. *happy dance*

[gabi]

Oh my goodness!!! It is adorable or 'dorable (as my little brother says). XD

[Stargazer]

OH MY. WOW. STRUNE! So cute!! <3 That's awesome. Now I want one. XD

Aw, you poor girls who don't have ANY Ilyon paperbacks? They have an awesome feel unlike any other books I have, and they collect fingerprints beautifully, but then you can rub them off and it's kind of fun! I love them. ^_^ I have Resistance and Half Blood in paperback, but I need The King's Scrolls in paperback! Christmas. . . yes. Good idea.

[gabi]

I have Resistance and The King's Scrolls in paperback and I'm getting Half-Blood soon as a birthday gift from Amanda. *squeals*

[Stargazer]

Awesome! :D

[Alyssa]

Awesome! I'm hoping to get Half-Blood for Christmas. :)

@Jaye Oh my goodness! That looks just like Strune! So cute!!

[C.B.]

Awww! That's so adorable!
